Someone at CBS is confused. First CBS Interactive staffers were first sent a memo from division president Jim Lanzone saying that not only would the office be closed Dec. 24-28, but, even more, “Do not show up for work those days. The doors will be padlocked, and the windows turned into the material from that room in ‘The Avengers’ that Thor’s hammer couldn’t break.” But immediately after, executive producer Nancy Lane wrote to employees: “Contrary to the note below, CBSNews.com will NOT be closed [Dec. 24-28]. These are considered regular work days . . . We are a NEWS site and do not have the luxury of just shutting down or staffing so thinly as to be uncompetitive. Take the current situation in the Middle East . . . they do not celebrate the holiday and we must be available to fully and accurately program our site with all news updates. Questions? Come see me.”

Julianne Houghshowed off her bikini body on a beach stroll in Cabo with Ryan Seacrest. The svelte dancer-turned-actress recently told In Style "I'm 20 lbs. heavier than I was when we started dating. And now we always have great wine, and I can tell the difference. So I told him, 'You ruined my life because I can't go to a friend's house and drink cheap wine anymore.'"
